Abstract

Method for tracking stylus movement on a digitizer whereby a queue of a plurality of points is collected and an average of the points in the queue is computed. If the next point captured is within a predetermined tolerance of the average, as tested at step (170), then at step (180) the point is converted from digitizer coordinates to LCD coordinates.
The sliding queue is thereafter advanced at step (200) by dropping the first-acquired point in the queue, and the process returns to step (130). If the pen is still down, a new point is captured and added to the queue, and the foregoing steps are repeated.
If, however, at step (170) the point is not close enough to the average, the point is not displayed. The process then continues to step (200) for advancement of the queue and testing of the next point.
